Route is getting even more fun to work on. I have a pretty large segment with trees and textures going on. I cant wait to get started on the more mountainous areas near the tunnels.

Made some signs for the route, a lot more than shown

signs are 120 tris

Thank you very much guys I haven't had much time to do anything trainz related lately but here's something

Updated track again

Things will be getting interesting here...

I actually came up with a very good idea for the tunnel spline. More on that later.

Matt, you are doing an amazing job with this route. I look forward to everything it has to offer us once completed!

Three JR-employee created routes: Pittsburgh Sub by Scratchy, MWG by Mike, and Tumbler Ridge by you.....the only routes I'll ever need!

Hi Matt,

Don't know if you've seen this video yet of action on the tumbler ridge. I watched it this weekend and immediately thought of you and your project. Action with the electrics starts about 3 minutes in and there is a wee bit of cab footage in there to.

Keep up the great work on your project,
Jordan

Thanks guys! Having some support can be a real inspiration.

Believe it or not, that video was actually one of the first things I saw of the route that really drew me into learning more about it. I liked the BCR before then and the whole feel of the Tumbler ridge sub was pretty interesting. Pentrex actually has a documentary of the route and everything with it (including the GF6Cs) when it was being constructed on their BC Rail collection dvd. The actual route was built in a short time of just 995 days I believe.

anyways, here's some stuff.

The bridge of NotReallyBuiltYet. Impressive bridge really, gonna take some time to model it how I want to. :mop:

Can't wait to see how the bridge turns out. BTW what are the girder splines you used in the first pic?
